The reason why I said that you should be cognizant of your actions and not do certain things that would encourage him is because you may not have clearly let him know that you aren’t romantically interested in him.

If you never actually told this guy that you are not interested, he may not know that you aren’t.

Even though you may feel that you have sent him enough hints by now that he should get the point that you aren’t interested in him, it doesn’t always work out that way.

There are some guys that can be so taken by a girl that they don’t understand that by her ignoring him, she actually isn’t interested.

This is why it is so important not to take the easy way out in this by simply hoping that by ignoring him he will get the point.

Yes, that can work for a lot of guys but not all guys.

Hence, if you actually haven’t been honest with him in letting him know that you aren’t romantically interested in him and things have gotten this far with his behavior, you may be better off letting him know.

At least, if you were to do this and you made this guy aware, you would have played your part.
